Set one or more files that contain the data-set descriptions. See
L<types.db(5)> for a description of the format of this file.
+If this option is not specified, a default file is read. If you need to define
+custom types in addition to the types defined in the default file, you need to
+explicitly load both. In other words, if the B<TypesDB> option is encountered
+the default behavior is disabled and if you need the default types you have to
+also explicitly load them.

Configures the interval in which to query the read plugins. Obviously smaller

and "last full capacity").
+=item B<QueryStateFS> B<false>|B<true>
+
+When set to B<true>, the battery plugin will only read statistics
+related to battery performance as exposed by StateFS at
+/run/state. StateFS is used in Mer-based Sailfish OS, for
+example.

+To collect B<hugepages> information, collectd reads directories

+Reading of these directories can be disabled by the following
+options (default is enabled).

+=item B<ReportPerNodeHP> B<true>|B<false>
+
+If enabled, information will be collected from the hugepage
+counters in "/sys/devices/system/node/*/hugepages".
+This is used to check the per-node hugepage statistics on
+a NUMA system.

+
+If enabled, information will be collected from the hugepage

+This can be used on both NUMA and non-NUMA systems to check
+the overall hugepage statistics.
